Local Train Social Service
As part of its corporate social responsibility efforts, PeruRail offers the Local Train service, aimed at offering transport to residents of the communities located along the Cusco railway, whose only form of transportation to the town of Machu Picchu is via train.
This service allows the residents of these communities to carry out their daily social, cultural, economic, and productive activities by traveling between their hometowns and the other locations along the railway. Given the social nature of this program, our company offers this transport service at a special non-commercial, social rate.
